Brothel owner fears employee killed in Okla. fire

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — The owner of a Nevada brothel featured on the HBO reality show "Cathouse" says he fears one of his employees is among the four people whose bodies were found in a burning house in Oklahoma City.



Dennis Hof is the owner of the Moonlite BunnyRanch. He says he has not spoken with 21-year-old Brooke Phillips for more than a week and is unable to reach her. Hof says Phillips' aunt and a close friend believe she is one of the victims of Monday's fire.



The state medical examiner's office and police have not released the identities or cause of death of those killed. They refused Thursday to say if Phillips was among the dead.



Hof said Phillips left the legal brothel near Carson City, Nevada, two months ago because she was pregnant. Authorities said Thursday one of the victims was pregnant, and they have ruled the deaths homicides.
